The final recipe of #rachLthanksgivingweek is HERE! And she is a dream fam.

This is the dish to make for any vegetarians coming or kids or anyone who loves roasted veggies. Actually – this is a dish to make for everyone. Because who doesn’t love sweet potatoes, carrots, apples and apricots?! A little sweet and tarty and if you’re into a little spice – definitely be generous on the hot honey guys. It adds such a good kick that you will love.

Also I love that this dish is one you can prep ahead of the big turkey day. Or you can make this earlier in the week and have it with your meals all week long.

It is one of those easy sides you will want to keep coming back for more! I cannot wait to hear what you think.
